Summary

My retail experience includes almost a year of working at Jack's Surfboards in Corona Del Mar. I also worked steadily as a Social Media Model and Talent from 2015-2017 at JMP Creative. Currently, I am working at Coach where my managers are continuously giving me new opportunities to demonstrate and apply my skills in marketing, selling, and merchandising products. I have a background in competitive dance and performed with a professional company during my high school years. Starting at a young age, I have learned to adapt to new places, stay determined, and keep a strong work ethic.

Hobbies

I am very passionate about fashion and would like to continue learning more about it. I love to sew, design, and create clothing in any free time I have. I make most of my own clothing, along with tailoring and making clothes for my friends and family. My journey in the fashion industry begins at Orange Coast College, and I hope to transfer to a major fashion institute in 2023. I have also been on the other side of fashion modeling from the ages of 9-18 doing commercials and print work.
